[Verse 1]

My iGeneration grew up connected

Rejected for comic books that I collected

Finally accepted, didn't expected it

Cause we can clean up your system if it got infected

As the tech spread wider then the world got small

Got friends everywhere and I talk to em all

There's a reason that they say that I'm the bestestist

Cause I fill em up with references

To things that we both share and I don't care

If there's only two dudes out there

That really know what I'm sayin

In their head like a monster and I'm mind flaying

Since middle school where we pass those notes

Have a whole conversation consists of quotes

Download every megabyte

I'm just trying to represent for the things I like

[Chorus]

Since I was 12 years old

You think I speak in code

You talk in a different language

You'll all love it when I'm famous

[Verse 2]

You got down to the dirty south sound

Got crunk then your hyphy proud

Didn't mind when Snoop made words

So what makes you think you can't get down with nerds?

You know my flows for the radio

But I mention D&D so they tell me no

Whatever, I don't wanna be a part of this

Marketable? Now I'm an artist?

Till then I'm in your place like Goldilocks

And change the game like I was a Neo-Geo box

Like Kaylee I'm just here to shine

But I'm a hotbed of hate like I'm District 9

Won't fail like Cuba on a dog sleigh

Love rap like Ponyo loves Sosuke

Been hot since you saved it on floppy

Sign me to a label just so higher ups can drop me

[Chorus]

Since I was 12 years old

You think I speak in code

You talk in a different language

You'll all love it when I'm famous

[Verse 3]

You grew up with guns? You grew up with slugs?

I grew up with dice and I grew up with MUDs

I grew up with heroes on my TV

You grew up with music that was popular in 93

And the thug game ain't hot no more

You don't need a gang of guns if you grew up poor

Kinda really simple you can do what we did

Locate all the hate, ctrl+alt+delete it

Am I making it clear? I'mma take it from here

Ya drown in shallow water while the nerds persevere

Money hungry, spend a grand at Lids

Sell drugs, hit a woman, you're not good for kids

You're not the future, you're just doing a disservice

To passionate people who really deserve this

New brand of fan and they want what's new

1-800-Nerdcore, I'll show ya how we do

[Chorus]

Since I was 12 years old

You think I speak in code

You talk in a different language

You'll all love it when I'm famous

Since I was 12 years old

You think I speak in code

You talk in a different language

You'll all love it when I'm famous
